As retailer and customer expectations around labor, safety, and ethical practices rise, social compliance audits are becoming a routine — and high-stakes — part of doing business. This session will break down what these audits cover, the most common challenges companies face, and practical steps to prepare, respond, and follow up effectively. Participants will learn how to organize internally, manage documentation requests, avoid common pitfalls, and turn audit findings into meaningful improvements that protect customer relationships and business continuity.
